Burning something on the stove, She doesn’t quite know what- but She knows that what’s burnt will put Her in a rut. She needs to turn off the stove, to pour the burnt something out- but what good will it do if Her brain doesn’t process Her trying to get it out? The burnt something is in the sink, though it’s not washed down the drain. She doesn’t know if the burn will ever, actually, go away.

What Is Burnt
